I awakened this morning after a rough night of puking every hour until 12:30. My meds finally kicked in (yay!) and I slept until 8:15. Jason was long gone to work and the girls spent last night with my inlaws so I was in a quiet empty house. I immediately felt so alone which made me feel sad, but then I found a note from Jason which I swear he must have snuck back home to leave me after hearing my thoughts. It said "you are not alone, we are all here with you" or something to that effect. I do love that husband of mine. And then as I turned on my phone I got 10 or so texts/emails from friends and family checking in, photos of the girls looking quite happy doing there thing. And now my friend Molly is on her way over for a brief visit. So indeed I am not alone today.
The night was rough but I've been able to keep down a piece of toast and apple juice and I'm about to tackle some matzoh ball soup. We'll see how that goes. I'm just pushing through the next 4 days...
More later....

ReplyDeleteHi Jen,
ReplyDeleteGlad that you're doing so much better. Talia had a fabulous day at school! She and Casey built their own sukkah with blocks on the rug!
She also made a lulav too and enjoyed being in the temple sukkah with Casey and Tamar.
